This study aims to analyze the influence of transformational leadership and organizational culture on employee performance. Transformational leadership is considered capable of encouraging employee motivation and commitment through strong inspiration and vision, while a conducive organizational culture can create a work environment that supports productivity and innovation. The research method used is quantitative with a survey approach. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to employees in a private company in Indonesia, with a total of 100 respondents. Data analysis was carried out using multiple linear regression methods. The results of the study indicate that transformational leadership and organizational culture simultaneously have a significant effect on employee performance. Partially, transformational leadership has a more dominant influence than organizational culture. These findings indicate that the role of a visionary, inspiring leader who is able to empower employees is an important factor in improving individual and organizational performance as a whole.
